I've been a computer geek since I was a freshman in high school (1979) and first got into 3D in 1997 when I found Blender. I first got Poser in late 2004 and I've been accumulating software and content at an alarming rate ever since. I mostly use DAZ|Studio, becuase it's easier to work with and MUCH faster than Poser, but when I have something that needs dynamic cloth or I want to do some really crazy lighting, I break out Poser and suffer through it. I also use Vue, Hexagon, Bryce, and Shade, as well as the Gimp and Photoshop CS.

I work at MIT where I design and build supercomputers for use in research by a variety of government agencies, including the FAA and the National Weather Service.
